Legendary Creature — Human Doctor
{T}: Draw a card, then discard a card. Put a quest counter on Arcade Gannon. For Auld Lang Syne — Once during each of your turns, you may cast an artifact or Human spell from your graveyard with mana value less than or equal to the number of quest counters on Arcade Gannon.
“Mill yourself, build quest counters, then cast artifacts and Humans from your graveyard for free.”
Arcade Gannon is a self-mill engine that rewards you for filling your graveyard while building toward a powerful recurring engine. Every turn, you tap to draw and discard, loading your graveyard while accumulating quest counters. Once you've built up enough counters, you unlock the ability to cast artifacts and Humans directly from your graveyard for free each turn—creating a repeatable value engine that turns your discard pile into a second hand.
The deck wants to maximize this by stocking the graveyard with cheap artifacts and Humans that generate value when cast: mana rocks, card draw, board wipes, and utility creatures. You're essentially grinding out advantages turn by turn, leveraging every card in your deck twice—once when discarded and again when cast from the graveyard. This slow-burn approach wins through inevitable card advantage and tempo: you'll eventually overwhelm opponents with a stream of free spells while Arcade Gannon and friends chip away at life totals.

Skip pricey utility artifacts; lean on common mana rocks like Signets and Talismans, and fill creature slots with budget Humans like Siege Rhino and Mulldrifter rather than chase expensive legends.
